(from Protoscar Press
Release) Protoscar SA will unveil its electric sports car
prototype LAMPO2 at the Geneva Motor Show on March 2nd 2010 (stand
5141 in the e-mobile area).

LAMPO2 is an even more energy efficient successor to the LAMPO
demonstration vehicle presented in 2009. Weight, aerodynamics and
the efficiency of individual components of the BRUSA drive train
have been further optimized in order to reach a world-class energy
consumption of less than 100Wh/km-ton under real conditions.

More than enough energy for driving the LAMPO2 is produced by a
remote solar plant which is installed on the roof of a farm in
Tuscany, allowing a real zero-emission drive on a “Well-to-Wheel”
basis. (Visualize the statistical production data of the
photovoltaic plant).

LAMPO2 is equipped with
4 different charging modes: a standard single-phase with an on board
charger for typical overnight home-charge, a “control-pilot”
equipped single-phase on board charger typical for public charging,
a standard three-phase on board charger typical for charging at
industrial plugs (fleet-owners) and an interface for DC fast
charging, where up to 100 km of additional range can be charged
within just 10 minutes, by an off-board system. Protoscar will
compare these different systems in terms of usability and efficiency
by demonstrations in real conditions.

LAMPO2 has two electric motors (allowing it to operate as a
four-wheel drive with variable torque between front and rear axle
for optimal handling, safety and efficiency) with a total output of
300 kW (equivalent to 408 HP), 640 Nm (50% more than its
predecessor!) and over 30 kWh of Lithium-Ion battery capacity.
LAMPO2 features real sports-car performances: 5 seconds to
accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h, 200 km/h of max. speed and a range
over 200 km.
